Gambrelrs murderers may evade
the vengeance Of the law as Had
docks have thus far escaped. But
the inspiration of such murders
cannot elude the stern fiat of arons-
ed public sentiment. The saloon
element must he shorn of its unre-
stricted sway in our social and po-
lltical life. It must be RELOCATED to
its proper place among the other
evils Of an imperfect civilization.

tits exceedingly pleasant to every
true American that the long looked
for development and awakening OF
the latent powers and resources OF
the semi tropical states of America
is now at hand. To him who has
since the old times of cotton and
sugar, away back in the forties and
iifJies, watched the ever blooming
fertility of this favored land, been
conversant with the perpetual yer
dure of the lowlands and the balmy
fragrance and genial delight of the
hills and mountainous regions,
watching through years Of darkness
and gloom, of war and disaster ano
an uncoDQuerable animosity seem
lngly against fate as well as the
best welfare of the country, it is
now doubiy gratifying to see this
land OF every resource and possible
production appreciated, and the
tide OF fortune setting fully into its
steady flow.
At the close Of the war there
were many very anxious frieLds OF
the southern states, and of south
ern prosperity who hoped for an
early revival, a req w@akening OF
that Industrial activity and devel
opment which the necessities of the
war had brought at the north, and
the inquiries were many and earn
est as to the probable results of in
vestments in the southern states.

condition there the reply was ano

OF century, ''not yet" and the
greater number have grown old and
weary in waiting and turned to
other channels in despair, but tc
those who have all along known
the great resources and the grand
future of this south country, and
have never failed in their faith, the
present prosperity of these states is
peculiarly gratifying.
There is in the south every sin
gle attire elton and source of wealth
possessed by the northern states
with the addition of a milder, more
genial climate, and the fact of q
doubly interesting agricultural, hor
ticultural and floral production.
The remark is often made that
the climate is debilitaling and un.
healthy, but the facts are that the
enterprise, genius, manhood and
civilization and culture has always
been on the parallels Of Alabama
and Kentucky, and wherever there
IS employment for man there The
evils of differing climate rapidly
disappear.
In every report from the south
ern states comes the same cheering
intelligence of confidence and s

that there can be no relapse, no re-
turn, no retarding of the boom.

Woman Suffrage and Democracy,

Democracy has already emanci-

her? All restrictions of property,
privilege, trade or contract, have
been generally removed, save those

The Best Breed.

Some people seem to imagine that
there is some one breed of cows that
possesses all the most desirable quail
ties, and that when they get hold of
this breed there will be no further care
of looking after something better. 1t
is needless TO say that no such breed
has yet been found. and that every one
who has supposed himself the possessor
of such a breed has been disappointed.
Every breed is the product of some pc
culiar train of conditions, and is better
adapted to them than TO any other, or
than any other breed is. But condi-
tons are always changing-slowly and
imperceptIbly it may De- 9Qt neverlhe-
less always changing. A change in
continuance of the past train Of con-
ditions will be the most favorable for
the further development of the breed
which il has produced. That develop
ment may be for the better or for the
worst bg, its continuance will continue
the results.
Perfection does not seem to be con.
tanned in fixed or unchanging condi-
ton. That seems to be the nearest
perfect which most readily responds to
and adapts itself to existing conditions.
whatever they may be. All we can
ever reasonably expect are the best
possible results under the conditions
that eX. It and the circumstances that
influence the result. The question,
then which should be asked is: "Can
find any other breed than the one
have that will be- more valuable for me
to keep Or, (Which of all the
known breeds will do the best with my
surroundings and careP' Then the
practical answer should be in accord
with all the known conditions and CIR
cumstances which are to affect the
health and usefulness of the cow. He
will be the most successful who selects
with the best judgement
When the end is finally reached, it
will be found that the best breed and
the best individual of that breed is the
cow that turns ont the most product of
the best quality from the smallest con-
sumption of food-that is to say the
COW that most completely utilize the
feed she consumes aud turns it into
milk. There are two leading ideas
which should always be kept in view by
the daryman. One pertains to the COW.
The first is involved in the question,
"How much per acreP' The other is
expressed by the queery. "How much
for every hundred pounds I've weight
per cow?" How much nutriment car
an acre be made to yieldP This must be
determ ned by the amount of dairy
product turned out. How much can q
COW be made to yield for every one
9hundred pounds Of her live weights
But the amount of food required mus
} not be excessive, or it will reduce the
Weld per acre. The solution of the
problem is to get the highest y ED boil
